The Cluster Flies are upon us.

Thousands of them in every corner of this house, in the wardrobes, pleats of the curtains, window frames, ceiling cavity was buzzing.

Not anymore! 😂😜

It's pretty quiet now after an interior, ceiling and exterior spray with a quality NZ made residual insecticide. Boom!

All ready to go!
This is the first unit in a special project for a commercial client of custom aluminium enclosures to protect off the shelf live capture mouse traps from damage and vandalism. Great for putting in sensitive areas where bait isn't allowed.

When the air is thick with wasps, but no nests are to be found, I use wasp bait to take care of the problem. 'Vespex' is a treated protein-based bait designed specifically to control Common and German wasps. Worker wasps take the bait back to their nest to feed the occupants, whereby a slow acting insecticide in the bait kills any that eat it. Too easy!

It's WASP season and they are hard at work making our lives difficult. If your curious to know how us pros treat a wasp nest, here's a good sized nest I treated recently.

Bird season 2024/2025 is upon us!

We can apply bird repellant gel to roofs and other structures to keep birds from perching and making a mess over the season.

Talk to us about blocking holes, or installing a gutter guard system to keep birds and rodents out of your ceiling space.

Another option, for the serious individual with a major bird problem, is to have a permanent electrified system installed that gives birds a jolt when they land on your roof - it's like an electric fence, but designed just for birds.

Inquire today if birds are a problem on your property.

I had a good chuckle at this one...

Also, a word on expensive good nature kill traps; while they do work, they require daily removal of the bodies of the rodents that are dumb enough to stick their head inside them, but usually other rats will just come along shortly after and take the bodies of their fallen mates as free protein, thereby adding to the problem. I have encountered several clients over the years with the goodnature traps with the counters on them and while the actuation count keeps going up they never find a body to remove! Spooky!

Several stores nationwide have been affected by rat and mouse infestations.

When you've just gone to bed and hear the high pitched whine of a mosquito (Aedes Antipodeus) in your ear... My work is never done...
